Solar route in France

28.09.2018

The first solar road test has now been in operation since 2016. Does it keep its promises? In reality, electricity production is much lower than expected: 409kW/h per day instead of 770 kW/h per day, means 47% less. This makes electricity per kW/h less profitable, and may compromise future investments. In comparison, the solar park in Cestas near Bordeaux produces electricity at a cost 10 times lower.
